There is no way any team would pick up Ervin's option last season after the year he had. I can't fault the Angels on this. He had an ERA above 5 last year....and it was nearly at 6 heading into August. Why on earth would anybody be willing to pick up a $13 million option on any pitcher after a season like that?
This inning sums up the Halos season quite well, especially if Baltimore ends up scoring some runs out of this. 2 quick outs and then 3 freakin infield hits
